Lady D...

I think that you know that the majority of people on this board welcome any new comers with open arms. If someone is genuinely looking for help then they are not going to be battered or abused. I think the issue is what is the intent of this poster. Many feel their only objective is objective is to just get on your nerves.

I used to play cards on the internet quite a bit. During the card game you could also chat with the people you were playing against. Every once in a while you would get people that would start something in chat just to get a reaction, get on people's nerves... piss them off. It is a ploy to entertain themselves and gain attention. I have seen it so many times before and it is very clear to me this is what is happening here.

Lou talks in circles and has never been straight, open, honest or direct. He has yet to articulate what his "message" is all about. And, I suspect he never will because then the "game" will be over. He "claimed" to be unable to receive private messages. My fear is that was a ploy to get people to send him an e-mail so that he would have their e-mail addresses for his own purposes. Funny, but all of a sudden he was able to receive private messages. The last straw is that he comes on here and claims to be his wife. This was insulting to everyone here.

Then kvinn.. creates a web site for Lou to use, which was a great idea. But, my fear is that he is feeding right into what this poster wants. He wants people to react to him, respond to him. He will never use that web site. He will drag on the conversation about it as long as he possibly can just to pull kvinn's chain.

I agree with you that if you don't want to deal with this guy then just don't click on their posts. However, I surely don't want to see him take advantage of the kind and gentle people that frequent this board.
